This set should be available for the Kindle Reader
I would like to see this set made available for the Kindle Reader. I absolutely loved the first two novels Enders Game and Enders Shadow. I think this set would be an absolute bargain if it were made available for $25 for the whole set in Kindle form. I hope Amazon.com and the publisher comes to some sort of deal for the Kindle.

The 39 Clues: The Card Pack 2: Branch vs. Branch

Great Deal!
I ordered this for my son's 8th birthday. He's really "into" the 39 Clues books. He was happy to get the cards and ran to the computer as soon as he had a chance. For less than $5.00, this is a great idea of fans of the series.

I'm half-way through
Here's the deal: too many "smart guy's/gal's" have written books on the "right way" to play tournament hold'em. I've read many of them, (Harrington obviously, the best poker book (EV-wise for me) all time) and I've got to say right off the bat that Gus iterates what I've been thinking all too long; namely that too many of the so called "smart people" rely on math/reads/theory that in the real ...

Orson Scott Card

Tor Science Fiction, 1994

This made me an Orson Scott Card fan!
I've had a recent streak of intense sci-fi interest. First Out of the Silent Planet, then 1984, then Fahrenheit 451--and now, thanks to a friend, I have been led to this literary treasure: Ender's Game. There are a lot of detailed reviews, so I won't go into detail. In short: this book is brilliant. It's just great. The author has mastered tension and the insight into human psychology is ...

Lots of projects and lots of fun
As someone who's never been too adept at science or really enjoyed it all that much, I got my first taste of sincere, scientific satisfaction when I swallowed up Sneakiest Uses. These little projects are so simple, and they work! Now I find I'm curious about the inner-workings of all kinds of things, and I'm just hoping my boyfriend doesn't catch me taking apart the microwave.

Perfect for Vocab Flunkies
My strong point is math. Every test I've taken has been severely crippled by my Reading & Writing scores (due to Vocabulary). This product takes minimal time a day to strengthen and increase your vocabulary and prepare you for the GRE.

Harrington on Hold 'em Expert Strategy for No Limit Tournaments, Vol. 1: Strategic Play

Dan Harrington, Bill Robertie

Two Plus Two Pub., 2004

One of the smartest poker books you'll read
I think that when we're thinking about buying a poker book we weigh a lot of factors like what we want to learn, where are the holes in our game, and what's the likelihood that we can use what the book is supposed to teach...quickly. And I think we often walk away from the good poker books as better players, just not always quickly. I found that books like Sklansky's Poker Theory and Super System ...

Doyle Brunson's Super System: A Course in Power Poker, 3rd Edition

Doyle Brunson

Cardoza, 2002

Only read a few pages, already worth the money
From what I have surmised, this is the poker book to get if you get only one. And after reading only a small portion I can see why. I have already learned a good deal. Doyle does a good job telling you what he would do and why it is the right thing to do. That way you can comprehend and not just mimic. He covers more than just hold 'em, unlike many poker books. He covers many games and in great ...

Deal Me In
Just got this book in the mail and it's pretty awesome. really personal stories about how these players turned pro. ivey in atlantic city as an underage player is killer, scotty nguyen's story as learning the game as a dealer/vietnam immigrant, negreanu in toronto card clubs instead of high school classes. chad brown's chapter is kinda boring. hellmuth has had a fascinating path. the older ...

House of Cards: A Tale of Hubris and Wretched Excess on Wall Street

78 reviews
William D. Cohan

Doubleday, 2009

Too gossipy and too many second string characters
This book needs more analysis and fewer stories written with a "novelistic verve". It is a chilling story but the "trove of colourful tidbits" tends to be distracting.

beautiful and useful
I am in the process of ordering more copies of Card Games. The illustrations are inviting and the text is a joy to read. I also like the fact that there are card games from all over the world. The structure helps you to choose a game based on number of players, time frame, and what kind of card game you are looking for, from competitive to collaborative. I'd recommend this book as a gift to ...

Enders Shadow Series
All of these books are an excellent read! They have all the excitement of a thriller, while still making you think of deeper issues. I would recommend these books for anyone from their early teens through adulthood.

Potter Style, 2009

Awesome!
I am so happy she put together something like this. Who needs to pay for a trainer now?! Each of the 9 Workout cards are amazing...they're like taking one of her videos into the gym with you. I also like how each one focuses on a different set of muscles than the next card, so you can do them in order and are sure not to over-train one set of muscles. She's a genius. It is TOUGH, ...
